Asymptotic optimality of the Westfall--Young permutation procedure for multiple testing under dependence

In the (cid:12)rst subsection we give a brief introduction and background references for Kendall's rank correlation coe(cid:14)cient and Kendall's partial rank correlation coe(cid:14)cient with uncensored data.

A test for partial correlation with censored astronomical data

In spite of the long history of Kendall's partial rank correlation coe(cid:14)cient, there are no tests for the signi(cid:12)cance of the partial (cid:28) (Hettmansperger ).

A test for partial correlation with censored astronomical data

About the rank correlation and their comparison, the literature is quite large, of the recent publications we may cite and where the authors introduce a new measure starting from the the Kendall’s coeﬃcient for the information retrieval ﬁeld.

On the Weakenesses of Correlation Measures used for Search Engines' Results (Unsupervised Comparison of Search Engine Rankings)

As an usual test very close to the linear rank test, we cite the Kendall rank correlation coeﬃcient τn (see ).
